Ultimately, Call of Duty Warzone Mobile represents what is currently the most complete experience for fans of the series. Completely free of charge, it is possible to play the two most popular Warzone maps and access classic multiplayer without having to purchase a premium chapter of the saga. Too bad only for the poor optimization for devices that are not too recent and for the excessive consumption in terms of battery, problems that cannot be circumvented by installing the game on a PC.

The Elder Scrolls Online Necrom is the expansion that was needed for a game that was beginning to feel the weight of the years. The new maps are fun to explore and unique, full of points of interest and charismatic enemies to face. Furthermore, the lore in which Zenimax Online has sunk his hands to write the plot is dark and mysterious: we can't wait to discover its future developments for the world of Tamriel. Finally, the class that signs the DLC, the Arcanist, is fun to use and flexible, as well as the one with the most rewarding learning curve and the most "explosive" rotations. Seeing is believing.

Lizardcube succeeds in resurrecting the iconic Joe Musashi from the past, crafting a stylish and original video game that is also respectful of the roots of the Sega series: Art of Vengeance is a side-scrolling action game that rewards players who want to conclude each battle in the most spectacular way possible, offering a fast-paced and deep combat system that, unfortunately, isn't fully enhanced by the experience's decreasing difficulty curve. The title's artistic direction is nothing short of exceptional, offering a visual richness unmatched in both form and substance, with a simple level design that always offers something new with every change of setting. During the main campaign, the platforming sections proved to be merely a pacing mechanism, but those seeking a stimulating challenge will find plenty to enjoy in the optional Ankou Portal levels and in some secret areas that will test the reflexes of even the most demanding players.

Same formula, but a nice selection of puzzle and a mysterious story.

Super Mario Party Jamboree succeeds in its main goal: offering a varied selection of mini-games and modes capable of providing hours of entertainment for the whole family. Needless to say, as has always been the case for the series, the title is at its best when used in local multiplayer. However, the fun is significantly reduced when a single player is taking on the Nintendo challenges. The numerous customization options of the experience allow you to modulate the relevance of chance and luck within the boards, whose dynamic structure is still capable of constantly destabilizing the progress of the matches. Coming exclusively to Nintendo Switch on October 17, 2024, Super Mario Party Jamboree is a candidate to become an excellent ally for autumn evenings, both for families looking for an activity to do in company and for groups of friends ready to organize parties and parties based on a fun form of video game competition.

An extremely relaxing title, inspired and full of important hidden messages to interpret.

Mouse: P.I. For Hire is a game that exhibits a few minor imperfections—likely due to the developers' limited experience—yet these elements fail to detract from what is, overall, a truly unique experience that is enjoyable from both a gameplay and an aesthetic standpoint. Anyone who appreciates "boomer shooters" or the distinctive style adopted by Fumi Games should not let this title pass them by—especially given the budget-friendly price point at which it has been offered since launch.

It's unlikely to dissuade critics, but it will offer fans a whole host of changes and tweaks derived directly from community feedback. Furthermore, the two new gameplay settings could make the experience accessible to those less accustomed to the frenetic gameplay fans have come to know, while the additions to the already impressive content plan should ensure everyone has something to enjoy. On the other hand, it's also an installment with many added qualities in terms of attacking play, but it has a few defensive difficulties that will need to be addressed soon to ensure the most exciting and entertaining experience possible for the general public.

All in all, a great way to greet a great console.

Splendid.

Jusant is certainly not the most ambitious work of Don't Nod in purely production terms, but with few well-used playful and narrative solutions it hits the mark. Anyone looking for an experience with a relaxed pace but capable of offering valid food for thought should certainly give it a chance.

A great edition for a great game. Dead Nation is still one of the most interesting scrolling shooter available on the market, and the new broadcast + game mode is pure genius.

The possibilities offered by the title will certainly delight the enthusiastic strategists, who will be able to count on a longevity that exceeds one hundred hours with extreme ease, while it takes "only" 40 to complete a main quest at times devoid of bite. The repetitive storyline is one of the rare weaknesses of the entire Disgaea project, while on the playful side there is very little to blame the Japanese developers.

The Mystery Room is a nice surprise that lives up the catalog of the App Store.

Ingenious and original.

Total Recoil is the classic twin stick shooter: bringing ton of fun despite all its basic simplicity.

Color Zen is an original puzzle game, that mixes a relaxing atmosphere with a complex gameplay.

EA Sports returns to the virtual links in a big way, with a PGA Tour with a pleasant visual impact. Unfortunately, EA Tiburon's simulation isn't perfect: despite a refined game physics, the control system is still a bit immature (a three-click version is about to arrive), the customization of your alter-ego can still be improved and some choice of game design appears questionable, think for example of the lack of tutorial. The thirty routes proposed are welcome, while the roster lacks an icon like Tiger Woods, although the offer of the package remains satisfactory overall.

2K Drive represents the link between the mobile platform and a way to create driving titles differently, which aims to offer a more complete product.

The latest effort of Ubisoft Annecy is a huge playground available to the player and in which it is possible to have fun both in a carefree and in a more serious way thanks to the total freedom of approach and the countless customizations of the control system. If you are willing to overcome a few minor gameplay problems for certain types of activities, which would need some extra filing, and some technical fluctuations, Riders Republic will be able to offer you an unprecedented amount of hours of fun, thank you. also to the intention of the developers to support the product both through paid updates and new completely free content.

Yo-Kai Watch 3 remains a convincing expression of a hybrid between JRPG, strategic and adventure: a childish vision, frizzed and colored by a rather obscure aspect of Japanese folklore, reinvented with the visionary inspiration of the artists of Level-5.

The great quality of the narrative, as well as the artistic and gaming sectors of Gold Road demonstrate that the development team really cares a lot about the MMO and Tamriel itself. West Wald is a beautiful, varied location full of quests, loot and secrets suitable, as always, for everyone: from level 1 up to the maximum allowed in TESO. However, even if this update had only contained the Scribing mechanic it would still have been worth grabbing, as it is so important and fun to use it in both PVE and PVP dynamics. What else can we say? It's truly a perfect time to start an adventure in Tamriel, or to return to visit after being away for a while: the past is the past, the present is "golden", and the future is exciting.

Ace Combat 7 stands out as one of the most convincing episodes of an ancient and glorious series. In no uncertain terms, Skies Unknown represents the best possible result of a saga that decides to remain linked to its legacy, classic to the extreme.

The rating you find at the bottom of the article is the result of a balance between the incredible qualities of the original product and a remastered work that is not always in-depth.

But the desire for Shin Megami Tensei V has now become irrepressible.

Another strike for ACE Team. This roguelike action games has a deep combat system and a very well designed structure. Community goals and an impressive amount of creatures to play are there to strengthen the replay value.

The Italian Milestone, starting from a lower budget compared to the giants of the industry, shows ​​a considerable productive effort, clearly infusing all energy in a well built video game.

HB Studios have done a good job with the PGA 2K23 adding some new content while improving the gameplay and simulation realism at the same time. The roster features first-rate stars and some global icons such as Michael Jordan and Steph Curry, while the routes included should keep fans busy for quite a while (thanks to the plethora of content produced by its passionate community). TopGolf mode is a great variation on the theme, and online multiplayer is robust albeit lacking in substantial novelties. The graphics sector, on the other hand, can be improved: the quality of the animations and paths is fluctuating and not up to what is achieved by Visual Concepts / 2K with NBA 2K23.

New season, new Football Manager: the twentieth episode of the series stands as a watershed between the glorious past and the future. Sports Interactive is preparing to revolutionize the series in the next chapter, which will bring a brand new 3D engine and many other improvements. Contrary to what Sports Interactive says, FM 2024 is not the best episode of the series but it is the worthy closure of a journey that began two decades ago: apart from the expected compatibility with the FM 23 saves, the new features proposed are nothing sensational. However, it still works very well, thanks to many adjustments here and there, small additions (intermediaries and set pieces, for example), better interaction with players and a 3D engine that seems to have reached full maturity. Also available on Game Pass, FM 2024 confirms itself as the usual majestic and encyclopedic management simulation. The sweet football obsession for millions of players.

Pretentious, difficult and fun. Birds of Steel isn't Ace Combat and also for this reason it is a game that every lover of the genre should play.

Marathon is not a game for everyone. The hardcore nature of Bungie’s latest effort creates an experience with a high barrier to entry—one that will drive away anyone unwilling to commit to mastering its intricate mechanics, while conversely trapping everyone else in an endless loop of runs. This specific quirk ensures the game will likely never become a mainstream hit or reach record-breaking levels of popularity; yet, there is no doubt that Bungie’s take on the extraction shooter genre is one of the most compelling titles currently available on the market. Anyone with a visceral love for this subgenre should at least give it a chance—or, to put it more aptly, try going for a run.

Thus closes, Before the Storm, with a strong sense of remorse...

Viewfinder thrives on games of perspectives, encounters between photographs and three dimensions, and does not disappoint. The lively graphic style and its playful recipe designed to tease our creativity make it a valid production, perfect for indulging in a not too demanding leisure.

Old World Blues is unequivocally the most successful New Vegas's DLC. Thanks to an irreverent storyline and a gameplay enriched by an excellent level design, this expansion is highly recommended to anyone who still wanders the desolate lands of the Mojave.

Quotation forthcoming.

Full House Poker is almost perfect for fans of the genre.

The many improvements made to the gameplay show how the developer has paid attention to the main criticisms made by fans, but the desire to extend the package at all costs, forcing users to take hours and hours of negligible content, has finished to dampen the otherwise extraordinary rhythm of the narration, definitively paving the urban myth that sees longevity as a synonym of quality.

Interesting ideas and well balance between free and premium, made undoubtedly FIFA 14 Mobile one of the best exponents of the genre.

The base game returns in its complete version, enhanced by the Jamboree TV expansion, which dramatically increases the amount of content included in the package. Not all of the new features seemed particularly impressive, but all things considered, it's still one of the best party games on the market.

We tried this restored version of Myst on Xbox Series S and enjoyed it very much. To see the work of Cyan always has a certain effect, as well as trying to solve the proposed puzzles. For those who had already played the original almost thirty years ago, a tour around the island is always recommended. For those who had already relived the magic of Myst through VR or some other re-release (realMyst, for example) it is a little less so, especially if you don't have an Xbox Game Pass subscription. For those, however, who had never heard of this adventure, this is a unique opportunity to recover one of the pieces of videogame history.

Overall Infinity Ward Call of Duty Ghosts holds firm, resists the assaults of the competitors, and welcomes the new generation with dignity after all, despite the big single player problems and thanks to a well-crafted multiplayer. But after Ghosts, Infinity Ward will have to somehow rethink his Call of Duty, cause Black Ops 2 has clearly exceeded the "historic" Modern Warfare team already.

Silent Hill f arrived at the event as a very bold title. Konami and Neobards Entertainment have crafted an episode that represents a clear break from the series' continuity, but which, to the most attentive observer, will appear perfectly integrated into a narrative that now transcends the geographical confines of the dear old Midwestern town to explore obsessions, paranoia, and generational trauma with surprising imaginative flair. We're aware that not everyone will welcome this new direction, due to some bold decisions that depart significantly from the philosophy of the original saga, but we have a feeling this will be an important starting point for the horror series from the legendary Japanese publisher. The only shame is that the gameplay suffers from some notable shortcomings and fails to keep up with the excellence of the writing and the technical and artistic component. The City of Fog may no longer be the same as we remember it, but it's still the most fascinating place the genre has to offer.

A truly deserving project, even in the face of the indie nature of the project, which finds its most suitable reference platform especially on mobile.

Highly recommended to those not afraid of experiments and wanting to play something truly unique.

M2 rescues the roots of a fundamental saga for the gaming medium from technological oblivion, offering a collection that rediscovers the various arcade versions of the first three Gradius games and the two (but actually three) Salamander games. The emulation work is simply perfect and accurately recreates the experience of the original titles, characterized by a style that would have set standards and a terrifyingly high level of difficulty. Precisely to soften the more critical aspect of a production that would have been indigestible to many contemporary gamers, the Japanese company has introduced the welcome Easy and Invincible modes, while purists are given online leaderboards where they can compete for the highest scores. As if this commendable rediscovery wasn't enough, M2 enriches the package with a completely original Salamander, but developed with an eye on what a third installment would have been like if it had been released in the 1990s: the answer to this question is a video game calibrated for more modern sensibilities, but at the same time completely inserted within a historical continuity that will delight all fans of the saga.

Despite some technical issues State of Decay is a great free to play zombie game, capable to explore lots of different genres with ease.
